Adding String Values

16 New Member
I've got 2 labels (lblDSPCash and lblLCash) that are setup:

Format(dsDSPCas h.Tables("dspca sh").Rows(0)("d spcash"), "Currency")

and

Format(dsLCash. Tabls("localcas h").Rows(0)("lc ash"), "Currency")

My 3rd label (lblTCash) is supposed to be a 'sum' of the other two. I've tried the following code but it rounds to the nearest dollar:

Dim iDCash as string
Dim iLCash as string

iDCash = dsDSPCash.Table s("dspcash").Ro ws(0)("dspcash" )
iLCash = dsLCash.Tabls(" localcash").Row s(0)("lcash")

lblTCash.Text = iDCash + iLCash 'this is the 2 rounded values put together

Any ideas on how to get lblTCash.Text to equal lblDSPCash.Text added mathematically to lblLCash.Text??

Take each text, convert to a float, add the floats, present as formatted text

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. lblTCash.Text =( ((Convert.ToFloat(dsDSPcash.Text )) 
  2.                + ((Convert.ToFloat(lblLcash.Text )) ).ToString();
  3. // Format as you like

Trying to figure out the technique which should be used to add rows to a datagrid. I am thinking that I would want an "Add" button on the footer, but I am not quite sure how to do that. Is that the best method? Do you have a sample of how to do this?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
